You mention mistakes that affected your treatment. I had a conversation with my Onc that I repeated (innocently & nicely) to a Nurse that has treated me for over 2 years. Unfortunately another nurse overheard & loudly berated me about it. I was so shocked that to this day I can't remember anything said in her rant! This was in the ward with 5 other patients. I lost a bit of respect for her that day!
Trust, respect and communication should be a given.
